At least there's a few things besides oil and games; someone has rusty spokes and Dicky has a crush on a chopper.

Gonna be interesting to see what happens with this Polaris Slingshot. Personally, I think it is going to a big thorn in their side.
I look for them to take a big financial hit on this thing before it is all over.

I think what's going to be the nail in that coffin is so many states saying it ain't a motorsickle. What'd they expect with side by side seating and a steering wheel?

Yep. And I think you'll see more and more states taking a 2nd look at them and maybe changing their initial certification.

I have to fiddle with two drain valves on 1 1/2 discharge lines on pumper/tanker.
beats opening the stuck pump drain under the truck

He shoots, he scores!!

Just bought an older Delta 12" thickness planer for $20. It even came with a fresh set of knives. I don't need one often enough to justify buying a new one, but sure can't pass on one for that price. Scored a new Delta 6" grinder while I was at it for $30.

Now I just have to figure out where I'm gonna put them!

Nero fiddled, and Rome burned. I hope West, By God, Virginia doesn't do the same.

Always make sure to maintain good drain health.

Most of those LED lights I've seen actually turned on obviously weren't even close to their "equivalent". I've seen a 60W equivalent that wasn't much better than a nightlight. I've got an LED that's supposed to be about a 300W equivalent, and it's really bright. I use 90W equivalent florescents, don't want anything dimmer. Florescent replacement bulbs started out that way, too, too dim to be much use to me. We'll have as bright as we want LEDs some day. That hopefully won't cost today's outrageous prices.
